MongoDB Engines: Demystified

MongoDB Engines: Demystified

Description

In MongoDB you normally have the choice of WiredTiger or MMAPv1, and with Percona Server we have added two more engines( MongoRocks and In Memory). How do you know which to use? How do you know which to tell developers to not use. How do these affect how you might design you data access functions and your schema? This are all areas we will touch on to help make sure you're picking the right engine for your workload, and in some cases help you realize some data shards should have different engines.
